Tina Arena - The Machine's Breaking Down

Proven patterns breaking down All controls gone underground We should have never come to this Yet here we stand Devoid of optimists

The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down We set the wheels in motion Now we're caught in the commotion The machine's breaking down

Lebanon, Iraq, Iran Ethiopia and Afghanistan Religion and politics, plunder and rape While the weak cow down And pray for escape

The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down We set the wheels in motion Now we're caught in the commotion The machine's breaking down

Addicts bent on self-destruction A billion dollars for the masters of seduction Despair and hope go hand in hand Charting the inevitable course of man Bloody images bounce off the wall As the satellite pictures tell it all While common goals and common ground Disappear as the world breaks down

The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down We set the wheels in motion Now we're caught in the commotion The machine's breaking down

The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down The machine's breaking down [Repeat to fade]
